President Obama arrived in Russia today to find the already failing relations with his host in even worse condition. Russian President Vladimir Putins threat to provide his Syrian allies with a missile shield in the event of U.S. airstrikes further complicates Obamas flagging effort to win international support for an attack on Damascus.

Withdraw the CIA from Syria, defund and disarm AQ there, replace Kerry and censure Boehner.
That’s a great scene, but at the end, Billy Batts dies.
Calm down. Very few people will ever see or remember the posts that you made on this thread.
“Are usually found calling Obama cute names: Obambi, etc.”
I’m guilty, sir! Sheesh, being an 07’ Stanford grad is old now? Let me grab my walking cane and beat those skateboard kids for being too noisy.
Putty smells blood in the water, watch him go in for the kill.
does everybody love us yet?
oooh, the Russians are coming

IMO, ObamaCare is the next Holocaust as it was designed to be.
You’re exactly right. They’re compiling the lists.
Obama proclaims America is no longer a Christian nation.
Putin proclaims Russia's Christianity.
Obama embraces gay marriage.
Putin condemns the gays.
It seems like we've traded places somehow.
If America becomes a socialist worker's paradise,
it is dead to me.
And Putin is a 'made man.'

obowma the past few weeks became desperate to commit the US to the Saudi side in this proxy war. US military attacks funded by Saudi money.... what could possibly go wrong
LOL! I’d forgotten that scene. That’s not a bad movie, either.
Some of us “elderly kooky types” actually have seen the world. Perhaps not so much as you, oh great one, but we do have some degree of relative sophistication. Our years in this world quite possibly might give us a perspective that you don’t have, and won’t until you get to be our age.
ooops, Ahmad Jarba
“Jabar” was the bad guy in Aladdin!
prolly not much difference
Wait, who are you calling an alcoholic? Not W — he’s been a teetotaler since 1986. He hasn’t been drunk for over 25 years.
Everything I ever learned, which was worth learning, I learned from folks older than me.
I still do.
